John was always there to lend me a helping hand or a yard tool and never failed to say hi and ask how I was doing. He was one of the best. I'm sending you Amy, Jenny and Ben, my thoughts, prayers and love. You were truly blessed to have had him for your husband and father. He was equally blessed to have had you.

Amy, Jenny and Ben ---
John and I worked together for over 19 years. He was such a good manager but most of all - such a good person. He always worked hard but always had time for a laugh (or two).
I know how much he loved his family - you were the utmost of importance to him.
My deepest sympathies to you during this difficult time.
